  • We should learn to accept that change is truly the only thing that's going on always, and learn to ride with it and enjoy it.

  • Life is better than death, I believe, if only because it is less boring, and because it has fresh peaches in it.

  • I'm not convinced that women have the education or the sense of their own history enough or that they understand the cruelty of which men are capable and the delight that many men will take in seeing you choose to chain yourself - then they get to say 'See, you did it yourself.'

  • The experience of God, or in any case the possibility of experiencing God, is innate.

  • All partisan movements add to the fullness of our understanding of society as a whole. They never detract or, in any case, one must not allow them to do so. Experience adds to experience.
